Where the W I L D Things Are [Open]

[chara]

The dark red female was well beyond her old pack lands now, so far had she gone that she wasn't quite sure where this even was. Her nose had told her that she had passed pack borders not far back. But she wasn't interested in going into any pack territory. She had done the pack thing, and for right now she was just happy being on her own. The female had raised a litter of pups all on her own, it was time for her to relax. She was taking some much needed time off from socializing or taking care of others. It was about time she began to look after her own needs, at least for a little while. Chara was not a selfish female, she enjoyed taking care of others. But after raising three pups and taking care of a pack she just really needed a break. A refresher, if you will.

Her paws thudded softly against the ground as she tread across the grassy terrain. These lands were completely new to her, but she felt at peace here. Her black nostrils flared and she took in a deep breath. The scent of wild horses was the first thing that hit her nose. Next came a few faint scents of other wolves, but they were faint enough to have been from some time ago. Lucky for her. Her silver tipped ears perked up, listening intently to her surroundings. Vibrant teal eyes stared at the open plain around her as she strode through. Her tail swayed from side to side as she calmly walked farther.

After a few more strides she came to a stop, holding her head high and looking about. Once she was sure that she was free to relax, she dropped her rear to the ground. Chara's legs ached and she slid into a laying position, letting her les stretch out in front of her. Her body was thankful for the much needed rest. Slowly her entire body began to give in to the feeling of relaxation, her muscles loosening. However, she was always on guard even when trying to relax. Her ears stayed perked up on her head as she lay it over her paws. Chara's teal eyes closed and she took in a deep, cleansing breath. It was so nice to be able to just relax for a change. No hungry mouths to feed, no pups to play with, no pups to watch over, no pack to lead. Just herself and the open field.

[bg=000000][atrb=border,0,table][atrb=width,500,table] spring was always the best. the world was never too warm or too cold...the weather always seemed to be just right. the spring was a time of breeding and birthing....the only ways to keep the lobos race alive. spring was altogether one of the most active seasons out of the four. it was no exception to the conans favorite season...but it wasn't for the femmes. it was more of for the temperate weathers that he loved. the chestnut brute found himself bedded in the plains. lids closed tightly over his dark brown pools in an attempt to rest. however, insomnia seemed to be his enemy at the moment. a frustrated groan worked from his kissers as his bobbed tail flicked quickly in irritance. lips curled up to show his anger and frustration to any that may be around him. in the plains, there could be anything...he just wanted to make sure none came into his damn space. sniffer worked but all of the scents that he picked up were faint. gaining his composure quickly, simon dragged his legs underneath him and pushed himself up from the forests spongy ground. bodice braced itself as he shook vigorously to rid the plains grasses from his hide. huff escaped from his nares..and then he was on his way. claws dug into the moist grounds of the plains as he walked. white paws soon became brown with the dirt that clung to his white hairs. chestnut saddle atop his back changed shape as the winds played with his hide. brown orbs flicked over the terrains until they found something that caught his attention. he wasnt positive, but something seemed to be laying splayed in the fields. curiosity overtook the male...mainly because he couldnt pick up a scent from the way the wind blew away from him. lowering his muscular bod, the conan slunk his way in the plains grasses until he was closer to the thing. laying himself down when he could see the femmora...he waited for her to realize she was being watched. a part of him wanted her not too...she would be an easy target then. but another part of him itched for the company...it urged him forward to introduce himself. damn his emotions he thought as he shot from the ground and padded towards the white femme. muzzle unclenched as lyrics flowed out towards the laying lady. Hey there he stated, tone light and inviting. he didn't want to scare her. Im Simon...Sorry If I have disturbed you...I-I just... he stuttered at the end. cranium swiveled to stare back at the area he had just been. he did not want her to think that he had been stalking her...he had been doing the complete opposite. but one could never know what another thought. occ; sorry it sucks...still fleshing him out as a wolf

She was beginning to feel completely relaxed, the warm sun beating down on her dark pelt. It felt good to be resting in the open, finally getting some sun on her fur to warm her body. The warmth was good for her muscles, especially with how sore they were from traveling. She had traveled at least two days straight, only stopping to eat and drink. It was a long time to go, but she was used to such conditions. Chara's tail tapped gently against the ground and she rolled over onto her side. Her teal eyes stayed closed as she lounged in the warm afternoon. Every once in a while a small breeze would blow, enough to cool her warming body. It was the perfect combination, part of the reason she enjoyed spring so much. Of coarse there were reason that she also disliked spring a lot. For one the fact that most females went into heat, herself included. It was a pain having to ward off males, especially once they had caught your scent. Being a female, and being in heat, was a very dangerous thing in the spring; especially if you didn't have a mate or pack. With no one to protect you, you had to try and do so yourself. Against a hormone driven male that could be quite difficult. Chara was proof of just that. She had been force-bred and made pregnant by a crazed male following his hormones, and also his insanity. But that was all behind her now, she was well trained and she would be sure not to let that ever happen again.

Chara's ears twitched and her eyes opened, rolling onto her stomach quickly and lifting her head. She peered around the open field, having the strange feeling of someone watching her. She had thought she'd heard a noise a moment ago, perhaps she was right. The fur on the back of her neck stood and her nostrils flared. After a deep inhale, her muscles all began to tense. A faint scent, masculine in origin and most likely new, hit her nose. Her ears swiveled and her head turned quickly as the sound of paw steps hit her eardrums. Chara turned her head instantly to stare at the brown male coming her way. Every muscle in her body was tense and prepared for anything. Her teal eyes locked on him, watching him come closer still as he introduced himself. The red female titled her head to the side as he spoke, curious as to why he seemed almost nervous. "Hello" she said in a soft tone. She pulled her legs under her body and pushed herself up into a sitting position. She didn't like being at such a vulnerable angle when around a stranger, especially a male one. "I'm Chara..and that's quite alright. I should know better then to lay in the open" she said, mentally scoulding herself for it. She still didn't feel comfortable around this stranger, and so her muscles stayed tense and ready.

ooc: It doesn't suck! I liked it. I know what you mean though. lol Oh by the way, she's red not white ^_^

[bg=000000] the brute was not much of a socialite. instead, he liked to be by himself most of the time. but then again, that got annoying after a while. today had been one of those days that he would have likekd to of been alone...maybe gotten up from his nap refreshed and chased after a rabbit in the plains. that would have been a great ending to his evening...but now he found himself here. in the plains that smelt of musky horses and faint scents of other lobo's. one of those scents being pretty strong..for it stood before him. a rabbit he had not walked on, instead it was another. he couldn't tell if he wanted to be near her or if he should just turn tail and walk away. dark brown orbs could not help themselves but to measure up the femmora that now lay upright in the rough grasses. her red coloring was also intriguing...the brute had never seen anything like it in all his years. when the femme brought herself upwards into a sitting position, Simon took his time evaluating her. he wasnt checking her out...or maybe just a little. more of his eyes wandering was to measure his chances against her. she seemed to be a healthy, young female..muscular in all the right places, but there was something more about her. he could feel it through the chill that raced up his spine when he looked at her. he wanted to know more. the chestnut conan brought his own rump down, sitting on the rough grass. bobbed tail wiggled underneath him as he tried to move it into a more comfortable position. it was hard when you had this huge potrusion just laying on your rump. those with long tails were lucky, they could direct it in any shape or way they wanted. simon only had a few options; left or right. once he became comfortable, he directed his attention back to the femme that was now speaking. pinnacles pricked atop his canine crown as he heard her sweet melody. a light chuckle springed in his vocals as he heard her statement. it wasnt safe laying in the wide open of the plains..? Well if that is unsafe..I did not know of it until know. the smirk he wore would hopefully put the red beauty at peace...he wanted her to be comfortable for the time being that they were in each others presence. Its nice to meet you Chara he stated, nodding his cranium in a mock bow to the lady. he wanted to be respectful even if he didn't really want the company. sniffer worked as he tried to trace an new scents that the breeze might have dragged with it. lids closed over his dark brown orbs and a sigh worked through his parted maw as he cherished the moment. simon loved the feeling of the cold wind across his pelt, nipping at his skin like a small pup would. he enjoyed every second of what nature delivered. if it rained, you could always find the chestnut conan standing in the middle of a field, drenched in mother natures tears. he couldn't help it...it was his first love since he was a pup. as the breeze died, his pools uncovered to stare back at the femme. he hoped she did not find him awkward if she had watched his little display. So what brings you out in the Plains Chara....? he asked.....besides laying in the middle of the field as a target. chuckle vibrated as he stated his last words. with her vibrant coloring..she had been a sitting duck in the off green plains. he also wanted her to be comfortable...Simon was not like all the others that were sex-crazed and violent. he saw that she was tense and that only made him frustrated. he wanted her trust...and he wouldn't leave until he got it.

The red female could almost feel his gaze on her body, exploring her every muscle. It was the same that any wolf would do to another. Something so intimate could be so innocent at the same time, it was sometimes confusing. There was no possible way for her to tell the difference on whether he was checking her out, or if he was just sizing her up. But that was completely ok, because she was about to do the same exact thing. Her teal orbs scanned the brute's figure carefully, measuring him up the same way he was her. He was definitely a good weight, and there was obvious muscle definition to his body. He might be able to take her in strength, but what he overpowered her in strength she made up for in speed and agility. The female could outrun every would she had come in to contact so far, so she didn't have any doubts about being able to beat this male. She also had the agility of a feline. Something she picked up on her travels as a young pup. After finishing her evaluation of the male, she brought her eyes up to meet his. There was no embarrassment in her gaze, simply cautiousness and slight curiousity. Her brow raised as she watched him try to sit comfortably on the grass. She hadn't taken notice of the fact that he only had a stump for a tail. Once he had finally gotten comfortable he seemed like he was completely relaxed. Lucky for him. Chara was still tense and ready for any possible signs of aggression or unwanted movement. Her ears twitched atop her cranium as he chuckled, unsure of what exactly was so funny. The female tilted her head to the side at his words, unsure if he was mocking her or actually being truthful. She decided not to comment on it further, because she didn't want to guess and be wrong. Besides if he was mocking her it would only irritate her and she might get stressed. Stress was something she was trying her best to avoid, especially with another around.

She was surprised at the small bow he gave, not used to getting such a greeting from others after leaving her pack. "A pleasure" she said, nodding her head softly in return. She was respectful with her nod, but bowing was something usually saved for alphas. Neither of them was alpha, not here at least. Then the brute got a bit strange on her as a breeze blew over them. He closed his eyes and inhaled a deep breath, as if enjoying the moment. Quite an odd time to relish in any kind of moment. But who was she to be calling anyone strange? She heard voices and saw ghosts, she had no right saying anything about anyone. So she sat silently and let the male enjoy his moment, watching him curiously. When Simon finally opened his eyes, he immediately began to question her being in the plains. She expected nothing less really, a normal question for anyone to ask. "I have been traveling for two days and needed a rest. I was too lost in my own thoughts to even realize that my resting place was so exposed" she said, glancing down at her paws. She felt stupid admitting that she hadn't noticed she was laying in an open field, as an easy target for any predator. Chara turned her eyes back up to Simon, refusing to let herself feel shy or low. "What is it that has brought you here?" she asked in return. A fair question, and one that would help her get to know a bit more about him. Was he from a pack? Did he live here? Was he just a traveler like herself? All of these questions would be answered by his answer of her question she had just asked.

OOC: sorry it's kind of short

[simon]

[bg=000000][atrb=border,0,table][atrb=width,500,table] a chuckle fought to splurge from his kissers as he watched her eyeing him....measuring him up. sure he had done the same, but he was just gaining some amusement from it. a spark flew into his dark brown pools as he was looked over. pads lifted from the ground and set themselves back down quickly as he untensed his muscles even more. be relaxed and she will relax...hopefully he thought to himself as he stared into her orbs. from what he had looked at on her..he surely covered her when it came to muscle and such but she would be the fastest. he knew that if she wanted too, she could run and he would have trouble catching him. so by her not running..she must feel pretty comfortable around him..? he couldn't tell. towers flicked forwards as he heard her melody. I have been traveling for two days and needed a rest. I was too lost in my own thoughts to even realize that my resting place was so exposed he heard her state and he nodded his crown. she was a loner like him. that was one thing that they had in common. Its fine...I was doing the same a few yards away...Rarely any lobo's come here as you can tell by the stale scents he stated simply. it was the truth...rarely this place was visited. the open areas of the plains was undesirable for hunting...it was only used for meeting others. obviosuly everyone in the dead zone did not want to meet new friends. What is it that has brought you here?. simon tumbled the question in his cranium before he said his words. Just needed a little rest...a little hunt..and the quite nature of the plains. sigh rolled from his nares as he thought of the solace that the plains could deliver. thats why this place had become his favorite. the chestnut, black marked brute was getting sick of sitting on the plains crispy grasses. the bobbed tail that he had had since birth never allowed him to be comfortable when he sat which made him lay down most of the time. however, instead of giving Chara the upper hand if she decided to attack, Simon lifted himself back into a standing position. tail wagged spastically as he tried to rid his rump of anything that might have stuck to his fur. flicking his crown to his back, the lobo allowed his fangs to gently knead at his flesh. the problem with the grasses was that they allowed made him itchy...he could not tell if it was the grass or some type of insect that might roam the area. huff ran through his nares as he brought his attention back to the striking red femme before him. she was beautiful..a true catch for a male that may be able to reign her in. but that task did not seem very easy at the moment. she seemed to have a type of fire about her...that only made him more curious. maw unclenched as he prepared for his lyrics to take flight, but something caught him off guard. pinnacles flipped forwards, aching forward to the sound that had caught his attention. muscles tensed forward as he heard rustling down near the small pool of water. their was little coverage, so the beast below should have had not trouble seeing them both. sniffer worked at the scent of the deer that now drank from the pool. eyes drifted slowly towards Chara as he whispered to her...Hungry?. he sure was, and the knot in his belly was a constant reminder. simon started forwards, giving the red femmora a little nip on the nape to get her going. he could take the sick buck down on his own, but those antlers were never a fun thing to deal with. two wolves in the battle would make it easier. simon nodded his jaw towards the woods...hopefully she would get the message. he wanted her to hide in the forage just in case the buck made a run for it. it was a win win. if the beast didnt hear him or see him, then Simon got the kill. if it did and made a run for it...then Chara surely had it intercepted. they would have a meal soon...hopefully. occ; blehh xD

She didn't care if he took note that she was measuring him up right now. He had possibly done the same exact thing, so there was good reason for her to do so. She was a cautious creature and she needed to take precautions against possible threats. So far she had been good at staying calm. Chara might not be relaxed, but she was at least somewhat calm and not running away. That was definitely a good thing and she gave herself points for that. Of coarse she couldn't help be check out his pelt while she was sizing him up. He had a relatively normal colored pelt, but she liked that. She had seen so many other wolves like herself with such strange colors. But this male, he seemed like he was actually normal. Something that she herself would never be. Normalcy would never come to her any longer, it just wasn't in the cards for her it seemed. She envied this male for his normal pelt and seemingly normal behavior. Chara would give anything to be normal like everyone else.

As she told him what had brought her here to the plains he seemed genuinely interested in her words. It was nice to have a male that actually listened to what she had to say. Not that she was saying anything of any particular interest at the moment. Her ears twitched slightly as he spoke in return, admitting that he had been doing the exact same as she. It was good to know that she wasn't the only one who had been laying in the field like a target. "I did notice that" she said with a small nod. The scents of other wolves passing through were so faint that they were practically unnoticeable. She asked him the same question that he had asked of her, the reason for his being here. Come to find out that it was the exact same reason that she was here. "This place definitely seems good for a rest, if it wasn't so exposed" she said with a small sigh. She did certainly enjoy these plains, it was quiet here and very relaxing. Her muscles were actually beginning to relax as she sat here calmly talking to the brute. It was unusual for her to get quite so comfortable so quickly, but something about this place made her feel not herself. Plus the male was very relaxed and calm, which seemed to almost be rubbing off on her in a way.

Chara tilted her head to the side as she watched Simon stand and begin to knaw at his skin where he must have had an itch. She turned her gaze away as he took care of the itch, feeling awkward for staring at him. Her tail flicked to the other side of her body as she suddenly began to feel anxious sitting here in the open plains. She was busy staring out across the plains and hadn't noticed that he had even turned his attention back to her. Sometimes Chara could just get lost in beautiful scenery, or even her own thoughts. Her ears were perked up on her head and she heard the strange sound at the same time as Simon. The female's head turned quickly and her muscles were tense once more, unsure of what this new creature was quite yet. Black nostrils flared and she sucked in a deep breath, taking in the scents blowing around on the wind. Her teal eyes flashed hungrily at the smell of the deer downwind from them. Her ears twitched at the sound of Simon's voice whispering to her, turning her attention to him. She nodded her head slowly and very quietly pushed her body to her feet. Her fur was standing on the back of her neck and she had lowered her head already. At the gentle nip to her neck Chara flashed a hungry glare at the male before moving forward slowly. Her teal eyes stared hard through the grass, glancing every once in a while towards the male by her side. He nodded his jaw towards the woods and she took the hint, moving off from him and slipping quietly into the forage. Her dark coloring hid her well in the darkness, though her bright teal eyes were perfectly visible. Her muscles were aching with anticipation. The female could already feel her stomach beginning to knot with hunger that she hadn't even known was there.

[bg=000000] Simon would not lie to himself....as much as he wanted to say 'stay away', the other half told him to 'catch it'. he might have just met this female but he was already taking a liking to the red demon. his smirked stretched farther down his maw like dripping paint when he saw her now hungered gaze at the buck he had just scented. as he padded past her, flicking his crown in directions for her, he gave a soft nip to her nape. a chuckle flitted through his maw as she turned her intense pools towards him. good..she was excited as him for the hunt. a yip sounded from his maw as he watched her trail into the forests coverage. dark brown pools gazed across her form as her muscles bunched beneath her skin. beautiful he thought to himself as he watched the genuine lobo take shelter in the weeds...awaiting his signal. with a nod of his cranium, simon picked up a lazy trot to the opposite side of the valley. let the hunt begin. claws dug up the soft dirt and the grasses that covered them as he made his way to the feilds edge. pools remained on the target; the sick buck in the distance just seemed to be grazing like nothing was watching him. how wrong he was about that. bobbed tail flicked back and forth as adrenaline coursed throughout his body. the brute was almost like a pup on his first, priveliged hunt. crown flew low to the ground as he began to move in a half circle, getting closer to his meal with each step. muscles stretched and collected with each extension of his powerful appendages. many lobo's saw him and though automatically that he was weak. simon had muscle, it was just conveniantly hidden underneath his chestnut pelt. simon still gained amusement from those that challanged him in thoughts that he was a maturing pup. in position behind the buck, he stopped and let his orbs scan that tree line in front of him in search for Chara. when his eyes fell upon her turqiouse he pushed himself back into action. sniffer worked as the intoxicating scent of the deer snaked through his nares. wind blew across his face, thankfully in his favor, but the brute couldn't let the precious moment pass. still in motion at his lanky trot, the conan shut his lids over his dark orbs to enjoy the fresh air that whipped at his long, nape fur. sigh fluttered through his kissers, lids opened quickly, and he was ready. an excited howl flew from his lips as he charged into a sprint after the beast. crown lifted up as his mouth formed an 'o' to send his song across the plains. when he finally turned his attention back to the deer, he noticed that it had begun to flee. appendages pumped furiosly as he chased after the slow animal. it did not take long for him to catch up, the deer had a bumb leg and it had become infected. still, the rest of its body would be a good eat for the two of them. jaw gaped open as he lunged for the hind leg that was kicked up in mid motion. clamping down on the thin bone, he held on despite the force of the animal falling to the dusty ground. growl ripped through his kissers as a new feeling infected him. one could call that feeling blood lust. simon let go of his hold and brought it up more onto the males hindquarters. he wanted to get a hold of more muscle so that he could control it more easily. vocals itched with the extreme vibrations that they were producing with his snarl. appendages splayed outwards for support as he awaited for the red female to make her way for the kill. she was lucky that he was giving it to her. usually, he was one to hunt alone...but he had made an exception today. occ; Sorry it took so long..and sorry it sucks majorly..blahh [atrb=cellSpacing,0,true]
